Abstract

Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) computations are conducted with general purpose CFD solver Fluent to examine the resistance and viscous free surface flow of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) carrier hull form in calm water. Shear-stress transport k-w turbulence model and multiphase volume of fluid (VOF) free surface employed. The resistance characteristics and wave profile of the LNG model also investigated. Model tests were conducted in towing tank for validation of the computed results. Overall results agree fairly well with experimental data, reveals the feasibility of RANS method in practical prediction of LNG resistance characteristics.
